another tune for the trilogy

Ok, first let me say this. JOHN WILLIAMS IS GREAT. I WOULD NOT CHANGE HIS MUSIC FOR ANYTHING. (Lapti nek excepted). But while watching A New Hope the other day. I started humming "Listening to You" From Tommy during the Finale. So the question is...What tunes would YOU put in?

 

When you mentioned 'Listening to You', I suddenly got the idea that it would be a good ending to ROTJ... as a dedication from Luke and Anakin to each other, as they finally both kinda fulfilled their destinies with a little help from each other. Might make a good song to write new lyrics to with that in mind... It could also work somewhat with the Han/Leia storyline at that point.

Anyway... I can imagine "Cosmic Castaway" from Titan AE during the ANH Death Star attack run.

 

You are so right. I never thought of "listening to you" for the finale of ROTJ. WOW!! Or how about "Get Back" By The Beatles for when Vader throws Palpatine over the chasm of the Death Star.

Get Back!
(to the tune, sort of, of Get Back! by The Beatles)

Vader once a man
Who thought he'd be a Sith Lord
Now he's more machine than man
'Anni' left his home on planet Tatooine
For the Death Star's gleaming clean.

Get Back! Get Back!
Get back and go save son!
Get back! Get back!
'cause you're the chosen one!

 

Now, here is Listening to You reinterpreted for the end of ROTJ...

And now, young Jedi, you will die?

::Sidious attempts to fry Luke::

Young Ani voice / Luke: See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me, heal me, heal me.

Vader: Listening to you I get the music.
Gazing at you I get the heat.
Following you I climb the mountain.
I can overcome defeat!
Right behind you I see the millions.
On you I see the glory.
With you I know the demons.
From you I get the story.
Listening to him I was deluded.
Gazing at him I know disgust.
Following him I was corrupted
I will reasign my trust!



Luke: Right behind you I see the millions.
In you I see the glory.
In you I see the goodness.
And you can save this story!
Listening to you I hear your music.
Gazing at you I feel the heat (heat).
Following him led to destruction.
I lay my life right at your feet!
Right behind you I see the millions.
In you I see the glory.
In you I see the goodness.
You just saved this story!
Ohhhhh, listening to you I hear your music.
Gazing at you I feel the heat.
Father, you tumbled the mountain.
Please now don?t retreat!
Right behind you I see the millions.
In you I see the glory.
In you I see the goodness.
All blue, smiling and free now!.
Listening to you!

 

That rocks. And with the double beat on heat. Someone watched the movie version.

 

That? Oh, I got the lyrics from a lyrics site because I didn't know if I could remember it all correctly. I guess they used the movie version.

Glad you like it!
